New Chapters

Did you say bridges?

Well, today was Bruce's last day as a working stiff.  He is officially retired and I really am happy for him.  He said that he got choked up telling some people from his office good-bye.  He said it was especially hard when he went in to talk with his boss, who is a really great guy.  He was a little emotional when he got home, but I think he will be fine once it all sinks in.  We went out to dinner tonight and I bought him the new iPAD 3 so he is happy and in there laying on the bed trying to figure his new gadget out.  Dad also remembered and called him today, 2 guys with time on their hand!

Crossing the bridges

I have 2 weeks to go until I am officially done, although I think it may drag on a little past that.  I feel so calm inside and I really feel like this is the right decision for me even though I have no idea where things go from here.  I am looking forward to shoveling out my office and getting rid of all the crap I have accumulated over the years, good thing we have a dumpster out back.  I am just really ready to move on to the next phase and so grateful that I am actually doing it!

I feel like I have been really distant from you and believe me, I have been missing you a ton.  I just hope you are having a great time up there with your grand babies.  When you get back, I have another story to tell you.  Heather (Bruce's daughter) and Mike are separated and heading for divorce.  Seems she has something referred to as Narcissistic Personality Disorder and has taken to Twitter to get her fix of admiration for her foul mouthed, raunchy, disgusting trash talk.  Must be working for her, she has over 14,000 followers.  Sad part is she has not been taking care of her kids and there are some real issues for them.  It is a big mess and she refuses to give up her following, she'd rather loose everything else.

Anyway, next post I promise to put up something profound and helpful.  I feel like I've been taking a lot more than I've been giving so forgive me for that, I'm crossing that dang swinging bridge, yup the one I still have bad dreams about, I'm swinging a little out of control at the moment, but I will have my balance again real soon.  Thanks for the encouragement and support, you are the BEST!

Love you tons!
